Claude Platform release notes — May 4, 2026
4 months agoOriginal notes
- We've launched Workload Identity Federation. Authenticate workloads to the Claude API with short-lived OIDC tokens from your own identity provider (AWS IAM, Google Cloud, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, SPIFFE, and more) instead of long-lived static API keys. Configure issuers and federation rules in the Claude Console, and the SDK handles token exchange and refresh automatically. See Authentication.
